I want to use two different client devices with the same jabber ID, and I want the message thread to appear the same to both of them, even if one of the clients is offline for a period of time. Both clients run Conversations and the server is ejabberd 21.12.

The both mod_carboncopy (XEP-0208) and mod_mam are activated in ejabberd.yml.

mod_mam is activated as follows:

mod_mam:
    db_type: sql
    access_preferences: none
    assume_mam_usage: true
    default: never

The behavior observed is:

  • Messages SENT to the account go to both clients if they are both online.
  • If only one client is online, messages SENT to the account to the online client. The second client does not get these messages when it comes online.
  • Messages SENT from either client appear in both clients' threads (I believe that this is the action of mod_carboncopy).

Desired behavior:

  • Messages sent to the account go to both clients. If one is online, it gets the message. The second client gets the message when it comes online later.

Answering myself: change "default: never" to "default: always" under mod_mam in ejabberd.yml.

I would still like a way to control how long the message archive is kept.
